Benefits of technology

The patent allows for a system to set up a sensory map of the physical world through sensors and a graphical user interface. The system can then navigate to specific sensed features and quickly display the signals that evidence those features. This makes it easier to perform complex computing and queries on the physical world and quickly focus on the parts that are most important for the computation.

Problems solved by technology

At first, computing systems were only able to perform simple tasks.
However, as processing power has increased and become increasingly available, the complexity of tasks performed by a computing system has greatly increased.
Likewise, the hardware complexity and capability of computing systems has greatly increased, as exemplified with cloud computing that is supported by large data centers.
In the area of recognizing objects within a more complex imaged scene with large numbers of visual distractions, advanced computer vision technology now exceeds the capability of a human being to quickly and accurately recognize objects of interest within that scene.

Embodiment Construction

[0018]Embodiments described herein are directed towards the managing of sensed signals used to sense features of physical entities over time. The method includes creating a computer-navigable graph of a sensed features of sensed physical entities over time. The computer-navigable graph may be any collection of sensed features that are associated in an organized way that may be navigated to by a computing system. The navigation may occur, for instance, in response to user input, in response to a user query, as part of a machine-learning algorithm, or for any other reason. In addition, for at least one of the sensed features for at least one of the sensed plurality of entities, at least one signal segment is computer-associated with the sensed feature such that computer-navigation to the sensed feature also allows for computer-navigation to the signal segment.

[0019]Later, automatically or in response to user input (such as a query), the graph of sensed features may be navigated to one...

Abstract

The managing of sensed signals used to sense features of physical entities over time. A computer-navigable graph of sensed features is generated. For each sensed feature, a signal segment that was used to sense that feature is computer-associated with the sensed feature. Later, the graph of sensed features may be navigated to that features. The resulting signal segment(s) may then be access allowing for rendering of the signal evidence that resulted in the sensed feature. Accordingly, the principles described herein allow for sophisticated and organized navigation to sensed features of physical entities in the physical world, and allow for rapid rendering of the signals that evidence that sensed features.

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional application 62 / 447,803 filed Jan. 18, 2017, titled “ORGANIZATION OF SIGNAL SEGMENTS SUPPORTING SENSED FEATURES”, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.BACKGROUND[0002]Computing systems and associated networks have greatly revolutionized our world. At first, computing systems were only able to perform simple tasks. However, as processing power has increased and become increasingly available, the complexity of tasks performed by a computing system has greatly increased. Likewise, the hardware complexity and capability of computing systems has greatly increased, as exemplified with cloud computing that is supported by large data centers.[0003]For a long period of time, computing systems just did essentially what they were told by their instructions or software. However, software and the employment of hardware is becoming so advanced that computing systems are now, mo...
